Your story reminds me of an Indian movie I once watched, named P.K. I'd recommend it to you (with subtitles of your language, obviously). It's a story about an alien who looses the key to his spaceship and is unable to go back. The way his adaption and reaction to our world is depicted, would surely be inspiring for your writing.

He is confused about a lot of things, amazed by a few too. But the movie uses a little time skip to avoid repetition of that feeling though. He does explain all those feelings afterwards to a reporter he meets, so it is well explained yet not repetitive.
